answer me this.

How did my BABY girl get old enough to attend Kindergarten Round-up?

She only obliged me with ONE snapshot…meanwhile rolling her eyes in exasperation as the other mommies and kids walked by (in my defense I did warn her that I was going to take pictures of the event).  She woke up saying, “I’m FINALLY a BIG GIRL…I’m going to Kindergarten!!”  But when the moment came at the edge of the classroom…she panicked.  She looked inside the room, her eyes darted back to me, and she said under her breath, ” I AM NOT going in there by myself!”  A couple of tears insued.  But the bubbly Kindergarten teachers whisked her away to the magical land of numbers and name writing and by the time I came to pick her up she was grinning from ear to ear.

My little Jules,

I will miss you like crazy EVERY morning next fall.  The car will feel empty when you climb out right behind the big girls and head in for your day of learning.  I pray that your teacher realizes how lucky she is to get to spend the day with you.  You are a special little {big} girl with a huge personality!  I hope Kindergarten is ready for you!!
Love,

Mommy

    When I walked A into her first day of kindergarten to take some pictures, she put her hand out and said, “Mommy, I”ll be fine, you can leave now.” I snapped one picture of her with her teacher, and barely made it out of the building before I completely melted down. Such bittersweet memories.

    I can completely relate to this post! I ask myself every day what happen to my baby? My ‘baby” starts kindergarten too this year. It’s crazy to me. I just gave birth to her, haha!!!

  3. She’s too cute for words! And I love that even though she’s a “big” girl, she’s still “little” enough to need some mama love on her first kindie experience. I’m such a teary mess on all the milestone days!
    P.S. LOVE that sweater cardi with the MJ dress! Mind sharing where you found it? :)

    Oh, that tugs my heart strings…I handled it so well when Olivia went to kindergarten…she’s a crier, so I couldn’t cry or she would fall apart & not go.

    When Evan goes, it will kill me… :(

    Julia looks so pretty, I know she’ll be a true teacher’s pet next fall…what a sweetheart! ;)

    Jenn,
    You made me cry! {{{Hugs}}} to you for missing your little BIG girl. I’m sure she will have a wonderful year. And bravo – The TCP sweater was GREAT addition to the MJC dress.

    My Sophia just had kindergarten round up yesterday…right??? It’s been a whole year????? Where did the time go??? J looks precious!!!! And you are right… her teacher and new friends probably don’t know yet how lucky they will be to get to enjoy that sweet personality of hers! She is a doll!!!!! I am not happy that Sophia will be leaving me all day next year. Thank goodness Joe will still be here to give me hugs and kisses. :)
